Lovely pair of shortsI'm not usually a fan of technical materials, but thought I would give these a go - glad I did - they look great and so light you can hardly tell they are on! Too early for me to comment on durability, but if they hold up well then these will great - certainly look well made!

My go to summer shortsBought my second pair of these and they are great. First pair are over 5 years old and have been on many rides and adventures. Still wear them although some light pilling around the seat area. Slightly different fit on this version, roomier waist although still nicely tailored.

Very comfortable, true to sizeI've been wanting a pair of these for a while and I'm glad I finally got them. They were true to size and very comfortable. I'm considering another pair in a different color.

The BestI have 3 pairs of these now, easily my favorite shorts. I rarely ride in these but they're super comfortable. Had to size down from 34" to 32" in the latest edition of the short.

Great all rounderWas looking for an all round pair of shorts to wear this summer on and off the bike. Most high street styles are too short or are restrictive. I'm happy to wear these on any occasion shorts are socially acceptable and would also use them on long bike rides as I do not use padded lycra any more.

Does the dark navy have the pink detail on the pocket? Many thanks

The Randonnee Shorts all feature the pink detailing on the hem of the shorts that is revealed when rolled up.

Do these shorts ever stretch out? As advised, I sized down to a 28 (typically wear 30) and only one button of the waist will even close (very uncomfortably). I'm hesitant to exchange for a 30 because the Cotton shorts in that size literally fall off.

Asked by: MMBB

Hi, these shorts do not stretch out. The previous season City shorts and trousers had a very close fit. We altered the sizing of these items for the new season to relax the fit and this accounts for your odd sizing dilemma whilst we phase out the previous season fit. Please feel free to email us and we can help with this.

The product details for the other randonee shorts suggest downsizing. Do these run large as well? I usually roll with a 30-32 inch waist, even in rapha products.&nbsp;

Asked by: danyof

Hi, if you usually wear a 30/32in waist, we would recommend you choose the 30in waist in these shorts.

I have quite large thighs and on any pair of regular shorts and pants I get a size 36 in order to accommodate them even though my waist measures out at 34. Should I downsize to 34 or should I keep it at 36?

Asked by: migcyc

Hi, these shorts do have quite a lot of stretch. They can accommodate a variety of leg sizes and were designed with cyclists of different leg sizes in mind. We would recommend you try a 34in waist. We do have a free 90 day returns policy if needed.
